Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest is due to kick off in a little more than a week at the time of writing, and as Keighley does every year, he and the Summer Game Fest team are already starting to tout how this year will be the biggest year yet for the not-E3 summer showcase.
Announced in a post on the official SGF account on X, this year’s showcase will feature over 60 partners across three days of events. Some of the more notable inclusions are the big three platform manufacturers, with PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo all signed on to be a part of the festivities.
Other partners to watch for announcements from their portfolios are SEGA (especially after today’s leak), Blumhouse Games, Annapurna Interactive, Yacht Club Games, and Devolver Digital, if only because Devolver always has something up its sleeve this time of year.
Yacht Club Games is an interesting addition because we could finally be close to getting a release date for the beloved indie studio’s next game, Mina the Hollower. Everyone knows Yacht Club Games for Shovel Knight and the spin-offs of the base game that Yacht Club has done since, but Mina the Hollower will be the studio’s first non-Shovel-based game since the original Shovel Knight.
And before you point to Cyber Shadow, Yacht Club didn’t develop Cyber Shadow, they just published it. Mina the Hollower is the first Yacht Club Games-developed title that doesn’t star a knight with a shovel, marking a significant milestone for the studio behind one of the most beloved platformers in the last decade.
A Mina the Hollower release date is at least my big hope for the showcase, seeing the Yacht Club logo. We’ll see what this year’s event has in store when it kicks off on June 6, 2025.
